Fetal Response to Cephalopelvic Disproportion
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1980SummaryA group of African primigravidae undergoing trial of labour were studied along with a control group to assess the specific fetal responses to the possible excessive head compression encountered in cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD). Depending on the outcome of labour, the patients were placed in one of three groups: major CPD, minor CPD and ...

ACTIVE MANAGEMENT OF LABOUR AND CEPHALOPELVIC DISPROPORTION
BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1970SummaryA preoccupation with cephalopelvic disproportion is the main reason for a reluctance to abandon the conservative attitude towards labour which prevails in the United Kingdom and Ireland. In a series of 1000 consecutive primigravidae, in which an active approach to labour was adopted, the incidence of disproportion was less than 1 per cent and ...

Maternal Height and Cephalopelvic Disproportion in Sierra Leone
Tropical Doctor, 1986Researchers used hospital records of 550 primigravidae who delivered single infants during 1979-1982 at the Nixon Memorial Hospital in Segbwema Sierra Leone to measure the value of various heights for screening women for risk of cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD). 39 of the women had a Caesarean section due to CPD.

Anthropometric Measures as a Predictor of Cephalopelvic Disproportion
Tropical Doctor, 1997This study compared three body measurements, height, hip width (bitrochanteric) and foot length, in 120 Hispanic women who had their first birth by cesarean section (N = 60) or by spontaneous vaginal delivery (N = 60). The objective of the study was to see if there were differences in these measurements that could be useful in predicting cephalopelvic ...

Assessing Cephalopelvic Disproportion: Back to the Basics
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2010Dystocia, or abnormally slow progress in labor, can result from cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD), malposition of the fetal head as it enters the birth canal, or ineffective uterine propulsive forces. Cephalopelvic disproportion occurs when there is mismatch between the size of the fetal head and size of the maternal pelvis, resulting in "failure to ...

Malpresentation, malposition, and cephalopelvic disproportion
2020Normal labour involves an appropriate-sized fetus in a vertex presentation with a well-flexed head that descends and rotates within the maternal pelvis in response to uterine contractions, delivering in an occipitoanterior position. Abnormal labour occurs when any one or a combination of these factors deviates from normal.

Anthropometric measurements as predictors of cephalopelvic disproportion
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2011AbstractObjective. We assessed the efficacy of maternal anthropometric measurements and clinical estimates of fetal weight in isolation and in combination as predictors of cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD). Design. Prospective cohort study. Setting.
